Wan Luo looked at Ruoyan a lot more haggard than before, she didn't even apply any fat powder on her face, and she didn't see a hairpin and a half ring on her bun, and the whole person was like a withered tree, it seemed that Qingyu's incident hit her far away, much bigger than she imagined.

Wan Luo stretched out her hand to comb the broken hair on her sideburns, and said softly, "How could I laugh at my sister." When something like this happens, I don't feel good about it. ”

Ruoyan raised the corners of his mouth coldly, and smiled helplessly: "As early as when my father was convicted, I was already discouraged, thinking that I would just sloppy my life. It wasn't until I met Qingyu that I felt like I was living again. But I don't believe he's a murderer. ”

When Wan Luo heard this, she could only be silent, she didn't know how to tell Ruoyan that all this was wrong from the beginning.

"In short, if I didn't listen to him admit it himself, I wouldn't believe it", Ruoyan rubbed the handkerchief embroidered with acacia flowers between his fingers, paused for a while and said: "Sister, can you think of a way to let me see Qingyu?" The fourth lady is young, I can't count on it, and now only you can help me. ”

"It's not that I don't help my sister, it's just that Qing Yu is now an important criminal in the imperial court and is detained in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Changge was not an official in the court, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate was speechless. Wan Luo avoided Ruoyan's pleading gaze and said slowly: "Last night, everyone saw with their own eyes, Qing Yu led a group of dead soldiers to hunt down me and Changge, this incident alone is enough to see his intentions. What's more, now that everyone in the house already knows about the matter between you and him, my sister on the cusp of the storm must not make any more extraneous branches, so as not to be innocently implicated. ”

If Yan has no way of knowing Qing Yu's true identity, he only thinks that Wan Luo is afraid of things and deliberately shirks it, and remembers the old incident when she was doing hard labor in the back garden, and secretly sighs that the sisterhood in the past is wrong, and her heart feels even colder.

As soon as Fang said the words, Wan Luo knew that Ruoyan would blame her in her heart, but Wen Changchu had always doubted his identity recently, and the Lin family had just said something like that in Qingyun Pavilion.

Ruoyan bent the corners of his mouth and smiled desolately, "Since you are embarrassed like this, then forget it." I know that Qing Yu is guilty of a capital crime, and whether I see it or not, it's just a thought. ”

"Sister, I—" Wan Luo stepped forward, trying to take Ruoyan's hand.

Ruoyan took a step back slightly, and said lightly: "Sister doesn't need to say any more. You and I are both the daughters of criminals, and now that you are fortunate enough to marry the son of a great general, it is only natural that you want to protect yourself, and I don't blame you. ”

After saying that, he turned around and left, but he didn't leave a chance for Wanluo to explain.

Nine Xuan Underground Palace. Weiyang Palace.

Mrs. Jin saw that Qing Yu and more than a dozen palace people did not return all night, knowing that something was wrong, she ordered the palace people to go into the city to investigate before dawn, and sure enough, she got the news that Qing Yu was captured, and she couldn't help but be angry.

Shangguan Yuntian had already learned about this from Wen Chongxiao's recital in the early days, and Qing Yu exposed his ill intentions in front of Wen Chongxiao, although there were all kinds of harm and no benefit to the Jiuxuan Palace, but Wan Luo and Changge were safe and sound, so he felt a little more at ease.

Mrs. Jin was naturally furious, slapped the stone table in the hall into two with a split palm, and shouted at Shangguan Yuntian: "Are you satisfied now?" Jiang Wanluo, that slut, took refuge in the General's Mansion, and now Qingyu has also become a key criminal in the court, all because of you! ”

"I have nothing to say about Wanluo", Shangguan Yuntian lowered his eyes indifferently and said calmly: "As for Qing Yu, he acted rashly in disregard of my orders several times to get to such a point, and he is to blame. ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Jin suddenly raised her eyes and asked in a cold voice, "What?" Listen to what you mean, don't you plan to spare Qingyu's life? ”

Shangguan Yuntian's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "It's not that I don't want to, but his life is categorically unkept." What a big deal it is for the officials and slaves of the imperial palace to be mixed into the fine work, how many pairs of eyes of the court are staring at the Metropolitan Procuratorate to hear this case, and it is a great luck that the emperor has not held me and my uncle accountable for this matter. ”

Mrs. Jin gradually calmed down, and realized the truth in Shangguan Yuntian's words, and now in order to protect the overall situation, it is also a helpless move to abandon Qingyu's chess, because she said: "Okay, although Qingyu is loyal, his heart is unstable, and it is difficult to keep it to ensure that it will not be a disaster in the future." It's just that the palace people who were sent to the city to inquire came to report that one of Qing Yu's crimes was to kill a girl in Wen Chongxiao's mansion, why have I never heard him mention it? ”

Shangguan Yuntian's expression was quiet, and he pondered for a long time before he said, "I was also about to go to him to ask him for clarification on this matter." ”

The candlelight in the cells of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was dim, rats were everywhere, and the smell of mildew and the pungent smell of blood were mixed together, and even the air was turbid.

Qing Yu was imprisoned in a separate cage in the northwest corner, sitting neatly dressed against the wall, obviously, Chen Lan still had some personal feelings for him.

The faint candlelight reflected a familiar shadow on the wall, and Qing Yu slowly raised his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief as if he was concerned, and said lightly: "You are here." ”

Shangguan Yuntian stopped in front of the prison door, vigorously tore off the iron lock on the door and walked to Qing Yu's side, and said in a deep voice: "Yesterday, I used the flying pigeon to inform you that the birch forest set up an ambush, since you know that it is a trap, why do you want to kill yourself?" ”

Qing Yu looked at the side with an easy face, there was no wave in his eyes, and he smiled lightly: "I'm already a person who is going to die, can't the young master talk to me about anything else?" For example, what did you eat for breakfast, what did you see and hear on the way here, and what song did the Qinglian girl from Hongbin Building sing today. ”

Shangguan Yuntian was not surprised by Qing Yu's calmness, everyone in the Nine Xuan Underground Palace was never afraid of death, "You answer my question first. ”

Qing Yu smiled bitterly and said with relief: "I have been an orphan since I was a child, and the palace master is my savior, but you have always been regarded by me as the only relative in this world. Now you want Jiang Wanluo to live, but the palace master wants her to die. What would you do if you were me? ”

Shangguan Yuntian narrowed his eyes and said, "Didn't you always want to kill Wanluo?" ”

Qing Yu raised the corners of her mouth, "I really want to kill her, since the moment you brought her back to life, there hasn't been a day of peace." As long as you still have her in your heart, the cold poison in your body will invade your internal organs little by little, and you will die. But that day, when I saw that you would rather be beaten to death in front of the palace lord than protect that woman, I realized that you really won't turn back. So I decided to make a bet with myself, if the throwing knife last night really killed her, if not, it was providential. ”

Shangguan Yuntian frowned slightly, and said with his eyes: "Even so, with your kung fu, you can retreat with your whole body, but why do you want to be caught in an ambush?" Is it possible that in your heart, between yourself and Wanluo, there is only one life? ”
